Embodiment Construction

[0041] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings. figure 1 It is a simplified cross-sectional view showing the internal structure of the image forming apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Here, as the image forming apparatus 1, a multifunctional machine having a printing function and a copying function is exemplified, but the image forming apparatus may be a printer, a copier, a facsimile apparatus, or the like.

[0042]

[0043] The image forming apparatus 1 includes an apparatus main body 10 having a substantially rectangular parallelepiped-shaped housing structure, and an automatic document feeder 20 (ADF: Automatic Document Feeder) disposed on the apparatus main body 10 . Inside the apparatus main body 10 are accommodated a reading unit 25 (reading section) for optically reading a copied document image, an image forming section 30 for forming a toner image on a sheet, and fixing the ton...

Abstract

The invention discloses a sheet tray and a paper feeding device, an image forming device and an image reading device equipped with the same. The sheet tray has a tray portion. The rear end of the tray portion supports the upstream side of the sheet in the sheet conveying direction, and extends in the sheet width direction intersecting the sheet conveying direction. Furthermore, in the tray portion, both end portions in the sheet width direction of the rear end portion are disposed more vertically than the central portion side in the sheet width direction of the rear end portion. above the direction of the placing surface. Accordingly, even when a sheet longer than the length of the tray portion is placed on the sheet tray on which the sheet is placed, the sheet can be stably supported.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a sheet tray on which sheets are placed, a paper feed device, an image forming apparatus, and an image reading apparatus including the sheet tray. Background technique [0002] As a sheet tray on which sheets are placed, there has been disclosed a manual feed tray that is mounted so as to be openable with respect to an apparatus body of an image forming apparatus. When the bypass tray is opened relative to the apparatus body, the sheet can be placed on the bypass tray. The sheet is carried into the inside of the apparatus body, and an image is formed on the sheet. [0003] In such a manual feed tray, when the length in the conveyance direction of the placed sheet is longer than that of the manual feed tray, the rear end portion of the sheet hangs downward. In this case, there is a possibility of preventing the sheet body from being carried into the apparatus main body. In addition, in order to reliably support the ab...
